The Apple iPad has been a replacement to the traditional laptop since its release in large part because of its long battery life. New reports say that the iPad 3 not only has long life, but will cost very little to charge.

Because AT&T and Verizon are creating new LTE 4G networks, and because tablets might be the new laptops, ordering one of Apple's third generation LTE-enabled, graphically-advanced iPads might seem a tech-savvy move, or even a must.
